LibriVox recording of Wonderful London by Anonymous.
Read in English by Peter Yearsley
"Wonderful London, its lights and shadows of humour and sadness". (That's the full title of the book.) A collection of short essays, studded with conversation, on aspects of Victorian London life, seen through the eyes of a middle-class narrator.
NOTES:
1 A "ticket of leave" is a document of parole issued to convicts who can be trusted with a degree of freedom.
2 In Chapter three, a "cornopean" is a reed organ.
3 In Chapter twenty, "negus" is a drink made from port mixed with hot water, citrus fruit, spices and sugar.
(Summary by Peter Yearsley)
